Alerts

Red flag warnings and wind advisories are in place across So Cal and this does include the Los Angeles area.  Strong winds, warm temperatures and very low humidity will all be possible in these areas today. The good news is that the moisture will be increasing thanks to some tropical activity in the Pacific. This should help to lower the fire weather risk this week.
